And thanks again for an utterly brilliant party!

I still can't believe that Dark of the Moor dedicated a whole song to Lav when we told them it's her birthday later this week. I can't believe they were there at all, they're so amazing! And that Andreas Simmons is so handsome! Did anyone see, he actually winked at me during one song. I thought I'd die of embarrassment.

The food was incredible, too. I've never had hardly anything the Malfoys served, but it was all delicious. Like those muscle things. They were brill. Sort of salty. And that sausage stuff - what's it called? Andouee. The sauce on it was amazing.

Anyway, Draco, it was totally nift, and I'm really glad you only decided to invite who you invited. And I'm glad you liked your presents. I'm even more glad that Mum didn't get the gloves after all, but I hope you like the vambraces. I remember telling Mum about them - there's a little slot where you can put your wand for while you're flying.

This was the single best way to start off the summer ever. Thanks again for inviting us!

I still can't believe they were actually there. Their acoustic version of Mort D'Arthur was just gorgeous.

And I got to talk a little with Rhys Morgan after. I think he was just being nice and all, but when I said his solo work reminds me a lot of Bob Dockett, from Ash and Thorn, he seemed pretty chuffed.

I wish I'd known they were going to be here, so I could've brought my album with. But yeah, I mean, he listens to a lot of classic rock, which is something I really like, and you can tell by the way he plays, so we had something to talk about, I guess.

And when Draco was busy flying and all, I thought I wouldn't be missed if I visited a little with Aunt Narcissa and Lucius. So I was inside.

Some of it, yeah. And there's this cool record shop in New London that I found last summer, and I go there a lot when I'm in town, and I spend way too much of my pocket money there. And the owner knows that I like the older stuff, so he recommends some stuff to me.

I wish I could've gone to some of their concerts. ...it's probably a good thing I don't have a Time Turner or anything, cause that's what I'd use it for.

Yeah, I'm packing some of the books I found from my dad's library that have family histories from Darby Parkinson's time, and 100 years before that too, so I can see what sorts of things we have on him.

And Mr Campbell has bunches of law books too, so there might be something in there about his case.

You might remember that I originally wanted to have a massive party with loads of people from school, but after being in school with everyone for so long, I thought it would be better if it was a smaller sort of celebration.

After hearing Dark of the Moor live, I've been thinking about asking my Mother if I can have music lessons this summer. Being a musician would be utterly snitch, don't you agree? But they don't offer much of it at school except for the choir club.

Oooh.

What would you be if you were in a band? Lead guitar, I'd bet.

I can't really see you singing.

If there were enough people at school that played, we could have a school band or something. Now that would be snitch.

You mean like a rock or pop band, not a symphony or something, right?

I had violin lessons when I was younger so probably guitar, yeah. I don't remember if you ever had lessons or not, but since you listen to so many records you might be a good songwriter.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

I've talked with Bones about it before, actually. You know, Susan? She's sort of quiet, but she's a great singer. And not just the choir stuff. She did a bang-up job when she was singing along to Which and Blue Kelpie stuff.

And do you really think so?

Well. It might be loads and loads of fun. Just to try.

Is she that...sort of a ginger, but not entirely? Anyway, I think I know who you mean. I wonder if Blaise can sing at all, though. I think his mother might've been an opera singer or something.

You have a way with words, so yeah, I can picture it.

alt_pansy: (vaguely amused.)
From: [personal profile] alt_pansy
Yeah, that's her.

And yeah, Blaise is probably a pretty good singer, too. I've never heard him though.

I'd bet you could switch from cello to bass guitar pretty easy though.

And really, playing anything musical at all takes a lot of work -- but some people are dead talented. Like Gawain Grimble -- he played guitar, but he also played violin, and harmonica, and banjo, and loads of other things too.

I know, that's why I did it that way.

Dark of the Moor probably practise some, yeah, but mostly they just have a load of fun, or that's how it looks at least. It's not like playing a concerto or something when you're that type of musician.
